SmartEdge Gym Buddy: A Workout Tracker @Raspberry_Pi #PiDay #RaspberryPi
Awesome project from HyperChiicken up on Hackster.io.
Exercising is an important part to good health and well-being. Setting exercise/workout goals is a simple way to motivate and keep yourself on track. Of course, it’s not so easy to get yourself up to exercise, let alone record your progress as you do it. You need to bring your notebook or whip out your cellphone to record the repetitions and sets, which increases distraction and lowers productivity.
This project tackles the analog way of logging and analyzing workouts/exercises by automating this process. The device autonomously logs the type of exercise and number of repetitions using AI Studio. The data is then visualized using Python and PyQt5.
